I just posted my first story over here (btw. Hello everybody! *waves happily*). I used a lot of "italic" parts in the text, but I don't know how to edit my chapters to keep those "italics" here, too.
Can anybody help me, please?
Greetings

The italics code is:
<i> words </i> for stories and
[ i ] words [ /i ] for the forums

Welcome to the madness!!
You need to insert the HTML for italics -
Here is an example:
[i*] Mora is sexy! [/i*]
Remove the asterix/star and just use the [ and i.
This will produce - Mora is sexy! < Which is sooo true _________________ I am no longer posting on the Forums. If you need me, I am lurking in the archives, reading and reviewing. You can also catch me at Demented Indigo! |

Now I have the ultimate proof that I'm really blonde - of course I knew the HTML-codes, and I used them... the only thing I didn't realize was the simple fact that the "correct" version only shows up where it's viewable for the readers.
Oooops. I'm a dork.
Thank you anyway! |

Ah, so there is a different code for the stories as for the forums! That would be why I haven’t managed to do that yet myself! So maybe it is a blonde question, because I am [under the dye] and I have been having trouble with that an’ all!

Yay, it does work! It even works adding the HTML code into MS Word before I paste on chapters, like Mora told me it would ages ago.
At last I have conquered this!  _________________ Pervy Nazgul Fancier and owner of Fluffy the Fell Beast |

Jumping in rather late to the thread, but I will have to try that. These code thingies baffle me. Why can you not just type and have it come out the way you want it to? I would tell you why, but then the guys would jump all over me for it. LOL. _________________ The only opinions that count, are those of the ones in control.
